Autofill doesn't work for Wifi pop-up window

When studying at the library and I automatically log in on the local Wifi there - as it should be. When connected there appears a pop up window, asking me to sign in with my username and password (for Internet access). The first time I manually typed it in, Safari didn't ask me if I wanted to save it in my keychain. So I manually added it. However Safari still never offers me to autofill. It wouldn't bug me so much, but the username and password is about 20 digits each, so I always have to copy/paste - which is a pain, because the Wifi auto-logs me out after some time of inactivity...

If you want to troubleshoot some more, try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.
